There is a small air bubble inside a glass sphere (\( \mu = 1.5 \)) of radius 10 cm. The bubble is 4.0 cm below the surface and is viewed normally from outside as shown. The apparent depth of the bubble will be

- A 6.0 cm below the surface
- B 4.0 cm below the surface
- C 3.0 cm below the surface
- D 2.0 cm below the surface
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) 3.0 cm below the surface
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( \mu_1 = 1.5, \mu_2 = 1 \) \( u = -4.0 \text{ cm}, R = -10 \text{ cm} \) \( \frac{\mu_2}{v} - \frac{\mu_1}{u} = \frac{\mu_2 - \mu_1}{R} \) \( \frac{1}{v} - \frac{1.5}{-4} = \frac{1 - 1.5}{-10} \) \( \frac{1}{v} + 0.375 = 0.05 \) \( \frac{1}{v} = 0.05 - 0.375 = -0.325 \)…

- Read the passage and answer the question given below.
When a host is exposed to antigens, which may be in the form of living or dead microbes or other proteins, antibodies are produced in the host body. This type of immunity is called active immunity. Active immunity is slow and takes time to give its full effective response. Injecting the microbes deliberately during immunisation or infectious organisms gaining access into body during natural infection induce active immunity. When antibodies are directly given to protect the body against foreign agents, it is called passive immunity.
